Short on time? Take a quick look at all of today’s top discounts, and then find out even more in the blurbs below:
$35 Metroid Prime 4: Beyond for Switch
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond for Nintendo Switch is down to $34.99 at Best Buy, and Amazon has matched the price. That’s one of the lowest prices I’ve seen for the latest entry in the Metroid series. This action-adventure game earned an 8/10 in IGN’s review, and Logan Plant found, “It nails the essential elements of a Prime game that remain special decades later: tense exploration through haunting locations highlighted by amazing worldbuilding, breathtaking art direction, new twists on classic abilities, and flawless technical performance.”
If you’ve got a Switch 2, you can purchase the upgrade pack for enhanced graphics and mouse controller support for $9.99. It’s still cheaper than buying the Switch 2 Edition.
$200 Off the Beats Studio Pro Wireless Headphones
Walmart still has the Beats Studio Pro Wireless Headphones for $149. That’s $200 in savings. These headphones deliver top-tier sound performance, solid active noise cancellation, and an incredible 40-hour battery life. A bunch of Apple features are also available, including a seamless, simple connection to Apple devices, at a fraction of the cost of the AirPods Max.
$95 MTG x The Hobbit Gift Bundle
Now, saying this is a “deal” might be a stretch, but the MTG x The Hobbit Gift Bundle is down to only 94.97, shipped and sold by Walmart. Sure, that’s above MSRP, but given how popular this set is, it’s no surprise. In the collection, you’ll receive a Collector Booster, Nine Play Boosters, a Traditional Foil promo card, and a few accessories.
4 Months of Audible for $0.99 Per Month
Great news! Amazon has a new Audible Deal ahead of Prime Big Deal Days, but it’s exclusively for Prime members. Right now, four months of Audible’s Standard subscription is just $0.99 per month, down from $8.99. With the Standard membership, one audiobook per month is included and remains in your library until the subscription is suspended. Even with the lower-tier membership, it’s the same catalog of millions of audiobooks available with Premium Plus.
Would you rather read than listen? There’s also a Kindle Unlimited deal for Prime members. Three months of Kindle Unlimited are completely free for new subscribers.
Save $10 on the Legend of Zelda Master Sword Hanayama Metal Brain Teaser
The Legend of Zelda Master Sword Hanayama Metal Brain Teaser is $24.50 on Amazon. This Mensa-rated brain teaser is great for those after a fun mental challenge, and when you’re not playing with it, the Master Sword looks incredible on a desk. The build quality is top-notch, made of cast metal, ensuring it will last a long time. It even makes a great gift for the Zelda fans in your life.
$13 20,000mAh Portable Charger
Finding a 20,000mAh capacity portable charger for $13 is rare, but you can pick up a brand-new Amazon Basics one on Woot for that price, and Prime members get free shipping. Beyond the high capacity, it offers two USB-C ports with a max charging rate of 20W and 12W on the USB-A. Sure, that isn’t the fastest charge, but it'll be perfect for topping up most smartphones and can even work for the Switch 2 in a pinch. A USB-C to USB-C cable is even included in the box.
Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle Available at Best Buy
The new Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle is available at Best Buy. This package saves about $40, as you’ll get the console, the $80 Mario Kart World game, and a 3-month Nintendo Switch Online Individual Membership. Unfortunately, the Switch 2 got a price hike at the beginning of the month, and this is the first bundle that’s become available since. You can also pick up a similar Nintendo Switch Sports Resort Bundle preorder that saves about $30.
Save 10% on the New SteelSeries Aeon Pro Gaming Controller
The newly released SteelSeries Aeon Pro Gaming Controller is already 10% off at SteelSeries. Just enter the code "NEWSLETTER10" to get the deal. Admittedly, this PC and Xbox controller is pricey, but it offers an exceptional build quality, a unique hot-swappable battery system, Hall Effect joysticks, and mechanical switches. To make things better, the sticks are modular, while the 16 buttons are customizable via the OLED display on the controller or the GG app. Plus, a handy “quick switch” feature makes it easy to go from gaming on Xbox to PC or mobile.

MSI Codex Z2C RTX 5070 Gaming PC for $1399
For a gaming PC that cruises in 1080p and 1440p, grab the MSI Codex Z2C RTX 5070. It’s down to $1,399 with free shipping and includes a voucher for a free download of the upcoming Control: Resonant game. The AMD Ryzen 7 8700F CPU won’t bottleneck the GeForce RTX 5070 12GB GPU, and the 16GB of DDR5 RAM and a 1TB M.2 SSD are solid. It can even take on 4K gaming if you’re looking to push your PC.
Batman 4K Film Collection Hits Lowest Price of the Year
The Batman 4K Film Collection is down to its lowest price this year. In this awesome box set, you’ll get the four films released from 1989 to 1997: Batman, Batman Returns, Batman Forever, and Batman & Robin. It’s my favorite era of Batman thanks to the incredible childhood nostalgia and fun, campy vibe. All the films are in stunning 4K UHD with HDR and include special features. This set makes a great addition to any physical media collection.
Now, that's not the only Batman 4K Blu-ray that's discounted. See even more Batman deals below:
Marvel’s Wolverine Video Game 1:3 Cowl Replica
The PS5 exclusive Marvel’s Wolverine just dropped yesterday, and if you’re looking for an awesome keepsake from the game, grab the Marvel Wolverine 1:3 Cowl Replica. This incredible collector’s item from McFarlane Toys stands at about 7.9 inches tall and includes a display stand, making it the perfect statement piece for a shelf or desk. It’s available for $17.99 straight from McFarlane Toys or $19.99 at GameStop. Unfortunately, the mask sold out on Amazon but should hopefully be back in stock soon.
TMNT: The Last Ronin Hits a New Low
Head to the darker side of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with The Last Ronin. It’s even written by the original creators of TMNT, Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird. This graphic novel follows one surviving turtle as he seeks to avenge his family’s death in post-apocalyptic New York. This hardcover book combines the incredible five-part miniseries of comics. Right now, you can also pick it up at its lowest price yet on Amazon. However, the deal is exclusively for Prime members.
$100 Off an Excellent Condition Asus ROG Xbox Ally X
IGN’s top handheld gaming PC is $100 off at Best Buy. An Open-Box "Excellent Condition" Asus ROG Xbox Ally X is only $899.99, which is a steal for such a powerful device, especially as the price of other handheld PCs continue to rise. Its AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme processor is ready to run the latest AAA Steam games, and the Xbox interface is familiar and easy to use. Find out even more about the Asus ROG Xbox Ally X in IGN’s review.
Save $24 on the Switch Pro Controller
While the Switch 2 Pro Controller is one of the best controllers for Nintendo’s latest console, it’s pricey. The original Switch Pro Controller is an awesome alternative, rocking many of the same features and a nearly identical design for a fraction of the cost. Sure, you won’t get the new GameChat button, two rear paddle switches, a headphone jack, and a few other features, but it’s still an awesome controller for the console. Best of all, it’s down $24 for Nintendo’s Customer Appreciation Sale, which is one of the lowest prices I’ve seen.

MTG Lorwyn Eclipsed Play Booster Box for $120
Amazon has slashed the price of Magic’s Lorwyn Eclipsed Play Booster Box. It’s back down to $119.99, just $2 off the lowest price ever. That brings the 30 Play Booster packs in the box to $4 each. Each pack even guarantees a foil. If you haven’t checked it out yet, MTG: Lorwyn Eclipsed is a really nice set full of awesome fantasy creatures.
$10 or More Off Pragmata
Pragmata has dropped to the lowest price I’ve seen. A PS5 disc, Switch 2 Key Card, PC Steam Code, and XSX are all discounted. This sci-fi hack-and-shoot game from Capcom earned an 8/10 rating in IGN’s review. Reviewer Michael Higham found: “Its old-school approach to level design and pacing provides a decent foundation for what it does best: heavy, satisfying shooting and a unique real-time puzzle system that deepens its action.”
Get Half-Off Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties
Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties for both PS5 and Switch 2 are back down to $29.99, matching Amazon’s Prime Day pricing. With this game, not only do you get a remake of the 2009 action-adventure with a complete overhaul of the combat system, but also a prequel side quest. Dark Ties follows the main villain, Yoshitaka Mine, and his rise in the Tokyo underworld. In IGN’s review, Tristan Ogilvie found, “Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties is another enjoyable blend of hard-boiled drama and sidestory silliness.”
